Editing Nutrition (section)

==== Domesticated animal ====
In [[domesticated animal]]s, such as [[pet]]s, [[livestock]], and [[working animal]]s, as well as other [[Captivity (animal)|animals in captivity]], nutrition is managed by humans through [[animal feed]]. [[Fodder]] and [[forage]] are provided to livestock. Specialized [[pet food]] has been manufactured since 1860, and subsequent research and development have addressed the nutritional needs of pets. [[Dog food]] and [[cat food]] in particular are heavily studied and typically include all essential nutrients for these animals. Cats are sensitive to some common nutrients, such as [[taurine]], and require additional nutrients derived from meat. Large-breed puppies are susceptible to overnutrition, as small-breed dog food is more energy dense than they can absorb.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Taylor |first=Mark B. |title=Caring for Family Pets: Choosing and Keeping Our Companion Animals Healthy |publisher=[[ABC-CLIO]] |year=2011 |isbn=978-0-313-38527-8 |editor-last=Davis |editor-first=Radford G. |pages=177–194 |chapter=Pet Nutrition}}</ref>
